We made another visit to Fort Zach this morning in search of a couple of potential new species for 2025 that were reported there yesterday. It would seem the absence of storms last night allowed whatever was there to leave and whatever was coming over last night to fly right on past Key West. So, no new species today.
We did get another look at the Brown Booby on its familiar perch.
This Sandwich Tern stopped for a portrait. It's about the only tern I can recognize by sight. It's yellow-tipped bill is its defining feature.
Crystal said she would like to see a Chuck-wills-widow since she missed out on the visit I made with Henry to Fort Zach earlier in the week. A few minutes later she spotted one that I had walked past.
This Yellow-throated Vireo provided our last decent look of the day. It too, is migrating south for the winter.
